I think you're secretly starting to love these Hondas! Little word of advice for ANYONE going to Port America - Get there first thing in the morning and BEFORE their lunch. I always get there the same day so everyone else hasn't been through my car and bring a jump pack because you'll definitely need it at some point. Be glad you didn't have to move 10 cars to get to yours haha... Hope you start feeling better soon Brother. Absolutely Love the Honda Z !!!
Lol ima secret Honda fan boy
4:52 It's a "Fire Brigade Operations Manager Vehicle", for the coordination of firefighting/accident operations.
You dial "112" for Fire & Rescue Service and "110" is for Police in Germany.
If you dial "911" from a Smartphone in Germany, you will also be automatically connected to the emergency services, i.e. fire Brigade/ambulance.
Niceeeeee
Love that Z! And more importantly that hoodie mad warm can’t stop wearing mine.
As far as Montana reg with dirt legal goes, they’ll send you temp plates while you wait for your actual plates. And keep sending you new ones if they expire and you still don’t have your plates yet.
I called LLCTLC and they told me plates is actually 4 weeks or less and they give you a 40 day temp tag which is awesome
Feel better partner, gonna be nice seeing what you do with the cars
thank brah
Just to make it easier and cheaper for any future cars, the terminal adapters you can use are JIS -> SAE. The small terminals are JIS, and the big posts are SAE.
Thanks for the info!
Man , it was nice to watch this video. Congrats man in the new member , the Z😂
Honda Z Gang
Congrats bro glad you got it already ,I did the Montana on my kit car in June 23, once they have the paperwork it takes about 2 weeks if you want temp plates and it is on there page you can print it out once it’s there and hard plate and title took 1 month from when I sent paperwork overall if you have questions hit me up
I called them today and got the same info, Ima go with LLCTLC
Good to see the Z in the states!
YUP YUP
So nice to see the Z arrived. Looking so fine. 👍👍
04:54 The red BMW wagon is from the Volunteer fire brigade. Germany of course.
Get well soon
Thanks again!
I know someone mentioned dirt legal and I’ve heard good things. I know you can get a Montana temp plate as you wait for your plate. The turn around time varies between the different companies. If they have to go through the commercial DMV process it takes a couple months, I use 5 star registration and I think they’re able to go through the local tag office but there is a little extra fees.
I think ima go with LLCTLC
Hope you feel better soon man
Same
Hey, you should do a trip to the Dominican Republic. I was there last week and there’s a lot of cool cars there.
On my 2024 plans for sure
This cold weather keeps killing our batteries.
The battery was dead in Japan I should've swapped it over while I was over there
Man feel better bro
thanks man
Bro Is Now A Honda Z Man.
THIS MY 3RD HONDA KEI CAR IN LESS THAN A YEAR I CANT BELIEVE IT
CDP for the win. Nice ride bro.
You know it lol
Take it to get a scrubbin, that battery is out if a "08 prius" its reffered to as JIS or Pencil post. I got flamed in the acty group for it too since it fits the trucks and if i wana swap the terminals u can run a normal bci 51R or 151R. In my lil autoparts world that battery is a 9851P runs about 252 with a 18 dollar core. Since its a non us battery some places might be picky and not take it since johnson control or deka dont sell these state side. Keep that in mind when you go to buy batteries. I would say go lith-iron (not ion) also known as LiFe battery.
If u want complete over kill optima makes a prius battery 😂
So auto zone would know what I mean if I say JIS Post?
@@Waybeforethefame no. Maybe the manager.
YESSSIR
YUP YUP
You should register it in South Carolina.
I haven't heard of a SC route
You should do a Doug DeMuro type video on the Z
Yeah ima do it soon
Surprised you could have something on the road withing 2 weeks takes the dvla about 4 months here and there is no way to have it on the road before its given plates
DMV you walk in and get plate’s same day. Title takes long to come
Any more info on that starlet?
1996 Toyota Starlet Glanza V
1.3L 4 cylinders Turbo
Auto
$8500
That’s a decent price for what it is. Might have to run my nickels a lot faster now
Can you share the fees or around how much you paid before picking up at the port?? Thanks
so how much the car cost?
How much did you pay in duties/taxes to clear Customs/port?
Lawnmower battery would have worked. I can show you how. Really simple - zero cutting of the terminals.
I didnt have a bold long enough to any toll to bend it, but I don't find the Prius battery, itll be good for like 5 years
I am going to pick up a kei truck soon in the next month. But I am looking for an escort into the port. Any recommendations of good companies?
Which port?
@@Waybeforethefame New York USA is what the B/L says. I imported one earlier this year to Baltimore. But since the bridge collapsed this next one is going to New York. I just need to hire a company to get me in.
@@alexandersmith8037 you don't need a thick card or escort in NY. if you're going to get it you just go yourself
@@Waybeforethefame That’s incredible! Thank you for the help! I just discovered your channel and really like the content, keep up the awesome work!
@@alexandersmith8037 GLAD I COULD HELP!
Prius battery is what you bought.
yeah thats it, I like it alot got it on the minica
Why do you axe them? Ouch
had no choice
Americans, you don't wan't the RHD cars, you slag us off in the UK for "driving on the wrong side"!
I think you should immediately send it to me in Scotland, I can give it a home among its brother RHD motors.😉👍
Lol I wish I was driving It in Scotland
@@Waybeforethefame You'd love it, bud. I can look out of my window here in the North East and see the Perthshire hills from my kitchen, and drive for 45 minutes and be in the Cairngorms.🥰
I just swapped the terminals, lol. Super cheap
No tools
@@Waybeforethefame Fair point, lol
